[Lude Media - Dr. Yan Says OCT/6/2026] Clip: From the Soviet Union to the CCP: “Weaponization of Plague”? 1️⃣ It was previously called “pneumonic plague,” WHY now Russian officials changed it to “pneumonia of unknown cause”? • Multiple reports have said that when Darya Shipilova, the 28-year-old researcher at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Institute, developed symptoms and was hospitalized on Sep 29, she was admitted with “pneumonia of unknown etiology.” In other words, at the moment she was hospitalized, the diagnosis did not say “plague.” Three days later, she died. • Previously, many media outlets, as well as a local official, said that the female researcher had died of “pneumonic plague.” But now Russian officials have begun refusing to acknowledge that it was “plague” and are instead calling it “pneumonia of unknown cause.” • Why are Russian officials now changing their language? Could it simply be something with symptoms similar to plague, even pneumonic plague? • For example, at the beginning of #COVID, although the symptoms looked very similar to SARS, if you used a SARS testing kit to test it, the result would still come back negative. • So could this be something other than the bubonic plague or pneumonic plague that people are familiar with? Could it possibly be a pathogen that only produces similar symptoms? • It may not even be certain whether it is a bacterium or a virus. Because plague has established treatment protocols and procedures, it’s hard for the researchers infected with plague to miss the treatment window and ultimately die. 2️⃣ Plague, even without modification, is already a traditional bioweapon, but it can still be further modified for biological-weapons purposes Plague, whether bubonic plague or pneumonic plague, does not require engineering to be a traditional biological weapon with a high fatality rate. • But that does not mean there necessarily has been no bioweapons modification of the plague bacterium. • What Dr. Yan wants to tell everyone is this: Although plague does not need to be weaponized in order to kill, could it have been weaponized in other respects beyond lethality? For example, could researchers have increased transmissibility in some respects while reducing lethality? • And “weaponization” does not mean that the weaponization effort necessarily succeeded. It could also be an unfinished experimental product. 3️⃣ The former Soviet Union’s research into the weaponization of plague was not transparent • This Russian plague institute itself has long been named in connection with such work, and defecting former Soviet experts have accused it of being a military-civilian fusion research institute that weaponized plague under the cover of “plague prevention.” • According to declassified documents, how far did the Soviet Union’s plague research actually progress? And later, did the CCP acquire these Soviet technologies and research results and further modify them? • When the Soviet Union collapsed, because the Soviet Union was not a defeated country, its bioweapons program was never completely opened up for inspection and made transparent in the way that its nuclear weapons were. • This Siberian plague institute itself was never fully opened for inspection and made transparent. So it is very difficult to know whether there are unfinished plague-related research products there, or even completed products that remain classified. • What we currently know about the Soviet Union’s biological-weapons secrets basically comes from: ➊ information obtained from the limited number of major biological-weapons laboratories that were opened; ➋ revelations made by Soviet biological-weapons experts after they defected, including in books and interviews. ‼️To note, CCP has always kept a close eye on Soviet bioweapons research technologies and achievements, trying every possible way to obtain them for itself. 4️⃣ Antibiotic-resistant plague was once a key focus of Soviet research; antibiotic-resistant bacteria have also long been a key focus of CCP research • Ken Alibek, the defecting former Soviet bioweapons expert, revealed that the former Soviet Union did indeed conduct extensive research into the weaponization of plague. What he knew was that the Soviets specifically researched “antibiotic-resistant plague.” This was one of their major research priorities, and they also tried to add other functions. • Alibek testified that the Soviet program sought antibiotic-resistant or immunosuppressive variants of agents such as plague and put major emphasis after 1972 on molecular biology and genetic engineering for antibiotic-resistant strains. • And the plague research institute in Irkutsk where this incident occurred was also one of the labs they heavily relied upon at the time. ‼️ On this point, Lude Media’s exclusive sources inside CCP-PLA also previously told us that the CCP is very interested in researching “drug-resistant” pathogens, especially drug-resistant tuberculosis. • Because there are many cases of tuberculosis in CCP-controlled China, and because the tuberculosis bacterium itself is a traditional biological-weapons agent, the CCP has long tried to make it drug-resistant and more difficult to cure. • Even Alibek himself could not determine exactly how far the Soviet Union’s plague research had progressed. That is because, much like in CCP-controlled China today, tens of thousands of people were involved in biological-weapons research. Some knew what they were doing, while some were not even aware of the full purpose of their work. • At present, what is known is that first-generation plague—pneumonic plague and bubonic plague—was definitely used as a bioweapons agent. • And beginning in the 1970s, the Soviet Union carried out all kinds of plague-related research, including work on vaccines, drug resistance, and other areas. As for whether this development ultimately succeeded, there are multiple accounts and disputes. Some say it succeeded. Others say it was still being improved. 5️⃣ The CCP once again appears to have “predicted the future”: four weeks earlier, the joint exercise was specifically about preventing “imported plague from abroad” • But what can be confirmed is that the CCP attaches great importance to this plague research institute in Irkutsk, Russia. There have been all kinds of joint research projects, jointly published papers, and joint exercises. • And just four weeks earlier, from August 24 to 27, China and Russia held an exercise called: “Preventing Imported Plague from Abroad.” It gives a strong impression of “the thief crying out that there is no silver buried here”—protesting too much. • There are already many different forms of plague inside CCP-controlled China itself. So how could they know that it would be plague imported from Russia? ‼️ It is just like before the COVID outbreak. On Sep 18, 2019, an exercise at Wuhan Tianhe Airport involved a scenario of a “novel coronavirus” coming from the Yunnan border region. • Because by then, the CCP had already prepared the false narrative involving the Yunnan mine accident and fabricated “Yunnan bat CoV RaTG13” (to cover up the real backbones of SARS-CoV-2: Zhoushan bat CoVs ZC45 & ZXC21). 👉🏻 So the questions here are: - If the Soviet Union had this technology, how much of it did the CCP obtain? - Did the CCP get its hands on things that even the Soviets themselves did not dare to use? - Could there be former Soviet personnel who were brought under the CCP’s influence and then worked with people on the inside to make things happen? There are many possibilities here.
